Something in the Roseanne series I always found puzzling and dishonest about the show

This isn't for the troll, but for any gossip historians who might be interested. Here's the exchange from Roseanne's September 1994 Stern appearance (which predates the existence of DL). Howard asks who her friends are and she says they're mostly people she works with. Then he confuses Goranson with Gilbert and Robin steps in.

Robin: Oh, you mean the other one who's running around with the producer!

Roseanne: Oh! How did you hear that story?

Robin: I know everything.

Roseanne: Oh my God!

Then Howard interrupts to take a call from a veteran offended by Roseanne's national anthem performance. They get off track for several minutes before Robin steers it back to the producer story at 32:51.

Robin: Well, what did happen with that young girl and your producer?

Roseanne: Well, I didn't know --

Howard: What do you mean?

Roseanne: I didn't even know that story was out.

Howard: What story?

Robin: The girl who played the oldest daughter --

Roseanne: How did you find out about that?

Robin: I know everything.

Roseanne: But tell me how you found out.

Howard (joking): Tom called us.

Robin: I cannot give out my sources.

Roseanne: It was real, it was a sad thing, I hope she's doing well.

Howard: Tell me what happened.

Roseanne: Well, I shouldn't get into that either.

Howard: What happened?

Roseanne: I don't wanna get sued, I've got enough lawsuits.
